Description

4to, iv, 81, [1, blank]pp., ownership signature of Thomas Field (1884), with printed label of G. H. Wyatt on front paste-down, cont. marbled boards, re-backed and new corner pieces, rubbed, joints cracked, orig. printed label on upper cover. Faulkner published this work to draw to public attention ìthe ëAbuseí that at the present time, and for many years past, have been existing in the distributions of ëVarious Charitiesí. Some curious returns will surprise the Reader, of ëLarge Receiptísí and ëTrifling Expenditureí, yet declared the ëTrusts in Debtí; to others irregularly paid or not at all, and to numerous accounts of the annual trivial irregularly to be the produce of Gifts to the Poor, that if correct, would appear rather an ëInsultí than intended as a ëReliefí.î (Preface). Copac recording a single copy at the British Library.
